Issue 99 - Nasho Front Page

• The Buildings can be upgraded to ensure they are fit use and that can include air conditioning.
• Additional large items of memorabilia (guns, troop carriers etc) may be sourced by NSAA to be located
within the new precinct
• Option would be available for NSAA to use one / two of their buildings as part of the retail component
of the Etro, (e.g. newsagent, Post Office, food outlet) either to operate themselves or to lease to an
operator. The reduced size of the development will reduce the available market.
• The buildings that would be available to the public include the Chapel; the Everyman’s Hut as a
community hall and the museum. However it was noted the museum may need additional security as a
result of de-commissioned rifles etc being stored there.
• A Parade Ground or assembly area for up to 300 people on certain days is essential – estimated area is
approx 600m2. This cannot be used as a car park during normal times but can be a paved public area for
all to use. The size of the parade ground is yet to be determined and no set size has been agreed. (Fit for
purpose will be the criteria.)
• The Precinct will be a feature of the Etro. It is unlikely to be located in the conservation zone, although
it could front it.
• Monuments – feature flagpole, and memorial wall and walk,
• Security of the heritage buildings important – advised of proposed on-site security – including cameras
plus option for caretaker residential flat in the Etro.
• Urged NSAA to continue existing work to maintain momentum in view of time lapse and to maintain
an acceptable appearance.
